No Spring Logo in Eclipse's about dialog

Jun 28th, 2007, 07:52 PM

I've installed Spring IDE 2.0 on my Eclipse 3.2.2 as described here, but after restarting Eclipse I don't see Spring Logo Eclipse's about dialog, neither I can see "Add Spring Project Nature" menu item on my projects. However, I can see all Spring Plug-ins on Eclipse's "Plug-in Details" screen.

I think you are aware of this: The JDK that runs your Eclipse does not need to be the same as the one you compile, develop or run your applications with.

And more and more Eclipse projects required Java 5 as well; e.g. Mylyn. Therefore it shouldn't be a big problem to use JDK 5 to run "only" Eclipse. If it is you should start working around/against these.

Thanks, cdupuis! I've been always using the same version of Java to run Eclipse and compile my projects... not that I didn't know that's possible, just never did it like that. I'll give it a try next week. Thanks, again.
